Is The West Worth While?
Ee ry
A booklet ot filty pages bearing the above title, written by A. 8S. Ben-
nelt, of Swift Current, was issued a few months ago in which this question
was asked, and, from the author’s standpoint, answered in vigorous and effec-
tive Juanguage. The author does not mince matters. While strictly non-
partizan in a political sense, he does not hesitate to tell Governments, Federal
and Provincial, some home truths; he makes no distinction between Kast and
West in pointing out where their present attitude the one to the other {is
wrong; while championing the cause of the Western farmer, he sharply cri-
Uclzes him for his attitude and conduct in relation to the solution of Western
ugricuitural and economic problems,
“{s the West Worth While?” is a thought-provoking little book. It hits
right out trom the shoulder. It 4s not necessary to fully agree with all the
opinions expressed, nor witt wll the conclusions reached, in order to say that |
it is # booklet which can be read with profit by all, and should be studied by |
Ecople both Bast and West. 1 even n small fraction of Canadians occupying |
places of responsibility and influence in the political, financtal, industrial and |
ugricultural branches of our national life gave os careful study to Canada's |
outstanding problem of today as is evidenced by Mr. Bennett's booklet, it is |
sate to say that some radical changes would be quickly effected in our body |
politic. |

The people of Canada, Bast and West, are alone responsible for }

ater all, the West is worth while. And if they will only make up their minds
to do so, and will get together in the right spirit in the doing of it, these}
wrongs can be quickly righted, and an unanimous verdict in favor of the
West rendered And a verdict for the West is a verefet for the future otf

German Soldiers Smile in Applying for

Holders of German medals of valor
are entitled to draw 25 marks in legal
money monthly from a grateful coun-
try’s treasury. In pre-war days this
was more than $6. Today it is one-
forty-billionth part of a German pfen-
nig. But somo of the medal-wearers
with a grim sense of humor still ap-
ply for the payment.
One hero remarked: “It takes some
courage for officials to look into the

his fatherland and pay him one forty-
billfonth of a penny for it.”

EXPERT SPEAKS
ON PROBLEMS |
OF THE FARMER
Saskatoon—In_ advising heen |
how to deal with the present situation
affecting the production of grain and
livestock in Western Canada, Hugh J. |
Hughes, of the market branch, depart: |
ment of agriculture for Minnesota, at
the sessions of the Saskatchewan Ag: !
riculiural Society cgnvention said:
“Live as well as possible, develop the;
home market, put your acres to work,
produce what the world wants, foster |
co-operative marketing and spend
freely. .
He declared at the outset of his ad!
dress, that the feeling that farm con- E
ditions are uniformly unfavorable, is |
far from correct. Mr. Hughes is |
@irector of marketing of the depart- |
ment of agriculture, Minnesota, and is
@ recognized authority in his chosen |
branch of work. We made his ad-
dress the occaston for stock taking of
farming conditions in the Canadian
western provinces, |
“The cotton growers of the Unites
Siates, of India, of Egypt and Brazil,”
snid the speaker, “are now enjoying a |

about for economic relief. ‘The waol |

Commenting on the stbject, Dr. J.

For the remainder of his address
Mr. Hughes confined himself to three
phases of the question: ‘first, the un-
favorable factors that affeet our grain |
and livestock farming; second, the |
factors that are in. our favor;
and |
third, how to adapt ourselves to the
situation.
Dealing wilh the advantages enjoy- |
ed by the Western Canadian grain;
farmer, Mr. Hughes stated that one of |
the most outstanding was the soil and |
climate permitting the production of;
grain carrying the highest protein con- |
tent. “The Canadian farmer,”
added, “can produce more food per |
man than any other farmer on the}
globe. He is something like six to;
eight tinies as ficient as the best far-
mer in continental Europe. It ts this
man and farm efligiency that enables |

__ \SEES DISASTER
IN ENTRY OF
A LABOR PARTY
Montreal—While it seems inevit-
| able that a Socialistic Labor Govern-
; ment must come into power in Great,
Britain, Sir Robert Horn, former Brit-
ish chancellor of the exchequer, in an
address to the Canadian Club here,
urged that even if such a government
must come, the two other great parties
should momptly sink their differences
and, as patriots, rather than polia-
jclans, should join issue to dismiss
{ such a government before it could do
injury to the country. He predicted
that a Liberal Government would then
come in, led by Asquith and Lloyd
George, while the Conservatives would
{lend suflicient support to ensure a
jsane and stable government that
i would preserve British credit at home
and abroad,
Sir Robert was especially severe in
his arraignment of the idea of a capital
levy, as a plan that would destroy both
ee business and credit.
“For my part I see nothing but dis-
aster from the entry of the Labor
| Sociatlate into office,” he sald, “and
conditions will be worse than they are
today.” He added that this was the
reason why he was at odds with those
who say it does not matter, and would
j} let Labor form a government for a
{while. “These Socialists," he said,
“have no right to form a government,
since they do not represent a third of
the people,” and he challenged their
claim to alone have the right to form
a government as a monstrous thing.

O"PHE gs of the Japancse
fe sarviheanke disaster made ap-
peal to Canadians for many reasons,
and the Government of this Dor
minion did not hesitate to lend prac-
tical aid to the sufferers in stricken
Japan, which staggered under one
of the worst disasters in history.
& ceremony the other day in New
York, which ve recognition to
Captain Samuel Robinson, who was
in command of the Canadian Pacific
steamer “Empress of Australia,”
which happened to be in the harbor
of Yokohama at the time of the di-
saster, is particularly interesting,
bringing to light the fact that this
gallant officer of the mercantile
marine was instrumental in the res-
cue of approximately three thousand
persons. Honor to whom honor is
due has been worthily and fittingly
done in the presentation of the
C.B.E. by the British Consul-General
at New York, in the presence of a
Pedal dt] thering, which in-
claded Mr. E. W. Beatty, Mr. Grant
Hall and other high officials of the
C.P.R. Canadians cannot help feel-
ing a thrill of pride when reading
Odyssey of Captain Samuel Rob-
fnson. The spirit which inspired Co-
lambus and Vasco de Gama and M.
bault pervades the officers and
the men of the British mercantile
m , and the gallantry of Cana-
dian sailors today is not altogether
different from what imbued those
old seamen—Phoenicians, Vikings,
Portuguese, Italians—who risked
thelr fives in the earlier days. The

The old famous sea captains, Co-

fully and well, with their crews to
help them. Captain Robinson’s he-
roic endeavor will stand out as a
bright, particular page in Canadian
Pacific steamship history, where,
taking immense risks, the morale,
courage and proud sea history of
the men of the mercantile marine
were again exemplificd in their
brightest colors. It is well for the
world that there are men of the
Captain Robinson type in command
of those great ships flying mercan-
tile marine flags on the seven seas.
The Government of Japan will take
a suitable opportunity to give due
appreciation of the valuable help
rendered by the C. P. steamships and
their officers for a service gladly
rendered in token of our friendship
and our common humanity. How-

CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE |
July brought us two visitors, Maudie }
accepted my invitation for two weeks |
of her holiday, and when she went}
back to the city Teddy came out, The!
Mowbrays had company too, a niece ot;
Mrs. Mowbray’s, Lilah Armstrong by |
name. !
I was coward enough to have some!
misgivings regarding Maudie’s visit.
Our friendship, old and precious as it
is, Was not based on community of;
tustes so inuch as on propinquity, and
1 wondered if she would fail to recog-
nize what was good in our simple life |
and would gee only the unavoidable |
crudities and inconveniences. Then, }
too, she and Murray seareely knew!
each other. She had been just a lit-}
Ue bit jealous of him and he, after he |
came lome, had been in no condition |
to overcome anyone’s prejudices. Per- |
haps, too, Murray was rather lacking /
in appreciation of Manudie’s good}
points, for generous, loyal soul that |
she is, Maudie is soinewhat limited in}
certain respects, and one needs to
know her as I do to estimate her at
her dull worth,
As has so often happened, my fears |
were wasted. Maudie was so glad to
ee me, so enthusiastic over Herring:
ton's Hope, and so absolutely slavish
in her devotion to the twins, that one
admitted that she had improved-—nev- |

too unsettled, to write a girsat many
letters, and so we had a great deal to
tell cach other.
Maudie was still in her father's of-
flee, and it seems Hkely that she will
temain there. She is not needed at
home and she has,*rather surprisingly,
discovered in herself the same capa-
city for detail that makes “Uncle
Frank” so invaluable in his position.
Her father’s business, she told me,
had been hard hit by the war, and for
the last year she had drawn only a lit-
Ue more than half of her salary, and
Mr. Jones had given her shares in the
company for the balance,
“Reg does not care tor Real Estate,”
she explained, “he wants to be a doc-
tor, so Daddy and I are really part-
Ners, and he tells me that the next
time we order stationery my name is
to go on the letter-heads. When you
come back to Winnipeg, Margaret
Anne, I'll take a list of houses and
sultes and my litue Ford, and first
thing you know I'll have you settled.
Dad says I am making good, but of
course he carries all tte financial re
sponsibility—my particular ‘line’ is
fitting a prospective tenant or buyer
into a suitable house. » woman knows
#0 much better than a man just what
will appeal to another woman. Bus!-
ness is very dull, but I feel that I am
earning my salary, and it would amuse
you to hear Daddy and Uncle Frank
boasting sbout me.”
In spite of my fondness for Maudie
I had been clascing her with the girls
who work for pin-money and who
might better stay at home and allow
their positions to be filled by those
who really need the salary. I con-
fessed and apologized and Maudie was
very magnanimous,
“1 did belong to that class at first,”
she explained, “but I became more and
more Interested in the work itself as
the months went by, and by the time
it was necessary for me to work {t
would have been a real hardship to go
back to my lazy life. And there's
another thing, Margaret Anne, Dad
has never cut his staff—that is one of
the reasons for our being so ‘short’
just now. So J do not need to feel
| that l am faking someone else’s place.
“It ds rather strange, isn’t it?”
Maudie went on, “You used to talk
about a business career, and it was
the last thing I thought of. And now
here you are on an out-of-the-way
farm, with a husband and two children,
while I am a budding Captain of In-
dustry.”
"'Oh, oh, oh, it’s a Jovely wart’ I
sang.
“Thats it exactly, agreed Maudie,
“the war has turned us all to the right-
about.” ’
“But, Maudie,” 1 a are not
overlooking matrimony your choice
of a career, are you? Do you remem-
ber what Mother used to say that
while the work was hard the rewards
were great?”
Maudie shook her head.
“Nothing like that for ime,” she re-
plicd decisively. “Fitty thousand of
the men of our generation did not
come home, and that means fifty thou- |
sand women left over, Tam quite;
content to be one of them. Judging |
by what T have seen, the competition |

“My Back Aches”
T is not much wonder that the mother ~
in the home has backaches and head-
_aches when you think of the multi--
plicity of work and worries she has from
morning until night and from week to
week,
_ But pains and aches come from poisons
in the system and if the kidneys and liver
were doing their duty as filters of the
poisoning would not remain

“This is why it is usual to blame the:
kidneys and the liver for backache, head-
ache, rheumatism etc.
